Intern Fun

Last Saturday, September 17th, I experienced the opportunity of representing GiGi’s Playhouse Fox Valley, at a resource fair.  The fair was held at Prairie Children’s School and many other organizations were there too.  It was exciting being on the other side of the table, informing guardians about what we do here, at the Playhouse.  The most fun was watching the children collect as many items as they could from each table.  We ran out of GiGi’s bracelets the fastest.  Luckily, we also ran out of brochures and multiple families stopped to learn about us.

Here is to hoping for more volunteers and more connections in our beautiful community.
